What People Are Saying
"I would like to take the opportunity to commend US Alliance on another outstanding project. This recent project was extremely challenging as we attempted to retrofit a 114 year old landmark property in Lake Forest. You exceed not only my expectations but also those of the City of Lake Forest Life Safety and Fire Dept, 'This is a perfect example that retrofitting a historic building can be accomplished without disruption, it's not impossible.' Your field personal made short work of overcoming structural and historical obstacles. Our relationship has been cultivated over many years of successful projects together. I have come to rely on US Alliance in terms of schedule, attitude, performance on the job, and most important quality of workmanship. I gladly recommend without reservation US Alliance Fire Protection."
- Michael A Ciero, Senior Superintendent, Bulley & Andrews, LLC

"Given a project this size and the amount phasing/parking relocations required to complete the entire garage, we could have had many complaints or problems with our tenant employees. Because US Fire provided such good communication and were so accommodating to our requests, we had virtually a complaint free project. Thank You!"
- Patricia l. Pierce, Asset Manager, Hamilton Partners
"Prompt, courteous, professional. This company generally installs entire systems, yet they did not hesitate to do a very minor repair on a system they didn't even install. Would I recommend them to someone else? I already have."
- Seymour Levine, Long Grove, IL
